Question Jun 22, 2019 at 08:58 AM
  #1
What questions do you ask yourself each day?

And ....

If you wanted to ask me, or anyone on pc a question, what would it be?

Anyone is welcome to respond. I ask that this is an inclusive thread for all, and that the same person (at least to begin with) isn’t mentioned multiple times. Which might lead to some of the quieter posters feeling or being unintentionally left out.

Is there a point to believing in God, since he allows bad things to happen to good people?

To you guys, what is as good mantra to say to oneself when you are in a bad situation.

I’m not sure that discussions about God are encouraged on pc. But yes I think there is a point.

For one thing... “trials” are “supposed” to make us “stronger”...

And there is no rule that says that because some bad things have happened to a person, bad things will always happen.

A mantra .... an old one but can be helpful. “One day at a time. And this too (hopefully) will pass...”

I’m sure other members here will be able to share more helpful mantras than the one I just posted.

One last suggestion (for now). Have you tried taking up a new hobby or distraction (old and obvious advice “but” )



If the “right” interests are found, can transform some peoples lives over time

I hope some of what I’ve posted is helpful

To posters here...

What questions do you ask yourself each day?

See my first post in this thread.

Peace and respect to all.

The question I ask myself each day is, will Human Trafficking ever be abolished for good? I have been in it and now that I am lucky enough to be out I am not going to be silenced. The sad thing is those in this horrible life they are silenced, but there are many that see it going on and they cannot stay silent( it only took one anonymous caller to the police to not stay silent to get me rescued). The thing is many think this is happening far from you and I suppose that is what everyone in my community thought until it happened to me. It is happening in your backyard. I am sorry I rambled on, but this is very personal to me. Thank You

The biggest question I ask myself is: "how long will I remain in fairly good health as I'm in now"? And what kind of catastrophic illness (or whatever else) will happen to me and when? I wouldn't want to go on living if I was not able to do the things that I can do for myself now. My life now is pretty good and there's not much I would want to change. Except on the lack of good friends and family that I have, which is a thorn in my life and I can't get rid of it.


I'm sorry to say that I can't think of a question to ask of others on here. Perhaps I may come up with one later. If I do, then I will post it.

Why? I could add anything onto that word

I have a habit of saying "nobody cares." I say "thats not true" but it feels true.

Sending peace and kind thoughts

Sorry Fuzzy I disagree. I am not worthy of any of that.

Possibly the one question I ask myself each day is
"What do I need to try to do today?"

Dear Friends, the question I ask everyday are many but boiling them down to a few, I guess these are the more important:
Are my children ok, will I ever get to see them?
Is there a God? Why ****** things keep happening, is like baseball game gone terribly wrong one wrong thing after the other and I am left with the moral to the floor?

I think I told you guys I live in Japan my wife left me in 2014, I divorced in 2016 and since 2017 complete silence I can’t see my kids. I went to a lawyer and she is taking her time too much. Tells me a year or so to build a better relationship. This is not my country so I follow laws and rules but is killing me inside. And now in addition my sister who has bipolar schizophrenia is getting worse and cries back home and my mom was diagnosed with early Parkinson disease. Besides the fact that we all have to deal with the difficulties of societies. I still have the morning terrors or demons that tell me don’t get out of bed you will just get attacked, and if you do get out people will insult you make you feel inferior and at the end unfairly let you go.

So I wonder if God is just BS these days not to offend anyone ( I come from a hard Catholic family), just I feel alone in the land of the Js and sometimes and I miss the openness of westerners (putting aside any stupid politics) I still miss westerners
